XenForo moderator

It certainly sounds like the two forums are sharing a database or something. Either that or the two forums are getting confused somehow (e.g. maybe you are accessing or viewing a different forum than you think).

I was viewing one forum in FireFox and the other in Internet Explorer. I couldn't confuse the forums because one is live and has data and the test one has only the main forum that's installed by default.

I added a style to which I wanted to make a few colour changes to make it easier to see but when changing from the default style to the new one it was also changing the live forum.

Could my host company have done anything that would confuse the databases like that as both forums are installed into separate databases?

I'm going to delete and reinstall the test forum and see if its still happening.

Yep both pointing to the correct databases but as above, it appears to have righted itself *touch wood*.

Brogan, while I have you here, is there a way to do a XenForo to XenForo import? I want to import some of the old database but not all of it so I don't want to just dump the whole thing into the new one.
